POETRY MEME

1. Comment with your character with a poem about them.
2. Reply in poetry.
3. Or comment with poems that you think would be written by that character.
4. ???
5. PROFIT.
6. ENTERTAIN LEMON.

DO NOT SIMPLY REPOST POETRY WRITTEN BY DECENT POETS. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. Man up, C&C.

Example: haikus are your friend.

MY FAVORITE MEME,
THIS IS IT. I APPROVE QUITE
HEARTILY, DEAR.

[oops_atlantis]

You are not doing
it right, my dear Lemon-face.
WHY DO YOU DO THIS?

this counts

[ifsixmonkeys]

Because I love you, Tali dear. You are
so silly and also little. ... .. iamb.

Re: this counts

[oops_atlantis]

what are you, even?
This line rhymes, then.

[appliest_apple]

No.
I don’t like quatrains.
They’re silly buggers
and you know it.

Just because you think
that everything should fit
into four lines that
rhyme

doesn’t mean I have to think so too.

What if we repost poetry by terrible, terrible poets?

What if I want to spam everyone with William Topaz McGonagall, okay? What then?

[oops_atlantis]

No, Olesia.
That is not what this meme is
about! Write your own.

[gallitrap]

boo fine.

Lighter than a sword,
A fairy tears down the Gods
Eternal Sunshine.

THIS IS FAR TOO MUCH
EFFORT FOR ME TO DO WELL
HAVE A HAIKU, BITCH

[oops_atlantis]

I WILL PRETEND THAT
IS ACCEPTABLE, LEAH.
TRY HARDER NEXT TIME.

[easytochop]

LOOK AT WHAT I JUST
POSTED. IS WILLIAM CARLOS
WILLIAMS GOOD ENOUGH?

[appliest_apple]

YOU ARE AMAZING.
I WAS WAITING FOR THAT TO
HAPPEN. BEAUTIFUL!

FREE VERSE FOREVER

[wolfuntamed]

I don't write poems.
That was Hijikata-san's hobby.

And they were horrible.

But also amusing.

When you use free verse,
You must learn to immerse
yourself in the world of
poetry. Poetry is like love:
You must plunge in head first
and have for it a thirst.
